@ruaine83 I have no issues for what it's worth. I can create all 24 workspaces no problem. Tested in Opera One 110.0.5130.39 64-bit on Windows 11 23H2.

Currently you only have 10 workspaces and cannot add more.

@pattarachart I just created an extra 22 (to make 24 total) workspaces no problem in Opera 113.0.5230.86 64-bit on Windows 11 23H2.

@AntiqueAntelope It's 2024 and I'm having the same issue STILL. Toggling "Player" off in settings worked as a temp fix - Thank you so much !!! I hope the Opera Devs fix this soon because 4 years is a long time to have a small but significant bug like this still kicking.

Re: [Implemented-Developer]Allow more than 5 workspaces

Since it took me multiple searches and time to arrive at the workaround for this particular bug, thought I'd make a separate post for you, user from the future.

Summary of the bug: When you try to create a 6th workspace on Opera's desktop browser, it renames one of the 5 existing workspaces instead of creating a new one.

Workaround: Right-click Player (the Special Feature that lets you listen to YouTube Music / Spotify / etc., in the sidebar itself), then select Hide Player. Now try creating the 6th workspace. Should work.

I am on Opera version 97.0.4719.63, and can confirm that:

I was unable to create a 6th workspace until I hid Player.

After creating the workspace, I re-enabled Player, and the 6th workspace persisted.

Hope this is useful.

This is the proper way to make a bug report. This bug and workaround are still accurate & reproduceable in October 2024.
Opera version: 113.0.5230.135 - OS: Windows 10
